2007 Vauxhall Astra 1.6L Petrol · GL07 BPF

The 2025-09-23 MOT at 126,112 miles passed with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the required roadworthiness standards. The recent test, together with the identical 2025-09-22 entry showing the same mileage and no defects, suggests a stable maintenance record with no evident worsening or improving trend. The mileage of 126,112 miles over approximately 19 years equates to about 6,600 miles per year, which is typical for a vehicle of this age. The interval from the 2023-08-30 test at 107,030 miles to the 2024-09-20 test at 116,050 miles represents a 9,020‑mile increase in one year, higher than the average annual mileage, but the subsequent jump to 126,112 miles in the following year is consistent with normal use. A buyer should therefore focus on components that have previously shown risk: suspension bushes and coil springs, which may cause binding if worn; rear brake calipers and discs, indicated by earlier failure entries; and any signs of structural rust or exhaust corrosion, especially on the chassis and wheel arches. Inspection of tyre tread depth, wiper condition and fluid levels is also advisable, as these consumables often reflect previous maintenance diligence. Overall, the vehicle appears roadworthy at the time of the latest test, but the buyer should verify the condition of suspension, braking and structural elements in person, as the historical record points to intermittent mechanical concerns that could affect long‑term reliability.
